The Buffalo Bills have plenty of cornerback depth. As a result, there are good football players the team can stash at the back end of the roster, or perhaps even on the practice squad, who would otherwise be contributors elsewhere. The obvious issue with trying to hide a player on the practice squad is that other teams can then sign that player to their active roster.
With the subject of today’s “90 players in 90 days,” the Bills have been able to hide him on the practice squad for the last few years. He’s been a solid contributor when called upon, but he has not been able to crack the regular rotation thanks to the talented people in front of him.
